REMEMBERTHEM (seb version)

from Tribute Act 2: Headliners by the garages

I’ve spent ten years sitting on this floor
Staring at my note filled door
Looking for some way to flip you off

And I find that every year
“Nothing wrong, all happy here”
So why’d you say that our fates are sealed

So give us some way of finding out
What we can do, what it’s all about
Cos I’ve heard whispers on the wind
That this ain’t real, it’s for our sins

Remember those who died in flame
If it’s me next, don’t forget my name
Remember those who are washed away
Just please make sure it’s not in vain

It’s funny how it all goes wrong
When nothing’s up, the threat is gone
The evil god has had its day

Unless of course it’s not that fair
Say what are you doing there?
Look at how they have their fun

So give us some way of finding out
What we can do, what it’s all about
Cos I’ve heard whispers on the wind
That this ain’t real, it’s for our sins

Remember those who died in flame
If it’s me next, don’t forget my name
Remember those who are washed away
Just please make sure it’s not in vain

Why are we still burning? Why are we still drowning? (x6)

So give us some way of finding out
What we can do, what it’s all about
Cos I’ve heard whispers on the wind
That this ain’t real, it’s for our sins

So give us some way of finding out
What we can do, what it’s all about
Cos I’ve heard whispers on the wind
That this ain’t real, it’s for our sins

Remember those who died in flame
If it’s me next, don’t forget my name
Remember those who are washed away
Just please make sure it’s not in vain
